lyrics

It is a story

I saw your face
In the newspaper again
They were talking about
About something you’d said

But I want to kiss you
Like in a movie you’ve seen
We’d be talking together
And then you’d reach for me

And I saw your face
It’s a face that I know
It’s the same but it’s different
But I can’t say how

We talked about
A book I had read
They’d made a film
But it was no good

It is a story
Of two people who fall
In love with each other
When they’re really old

Oh I want to know you
In a way that no one
Has ever known you
And I think that I can

Oh you once told me
I was your kind of girl
Oh did you mean it
Cause I couldn’t tell

And there was a time
When it was just you and me
Now when I see you
You’re on TV

But I want to kiss you
Like in a movie you’ve seen
We’d be talking together
And then you’d reach for me

And I see your face
It’s the face that I know
It’s the same but it’s different
But I can’t say how
